Well yea, dropping bombs into civilian buildings indiscriminately will do that.

So many people running whataboutism interference for the apartheid regime in this thread 🤦

We get it! Nobody sane is saying that the atrocities of Hamas are excusable! That doesn't free the Israeli government from responsibility for their decades of oppression, genocide and systematic displacement of the Palestinian people, though.

I have seen many people say that terrorism from Hamas is excusable due to the actions of the Israeli government. Obviously the Israeli government has done many things they absolutely should not have, but that does not excuse terrorism like many people on Lemmy have said.

Correction: a tiny minority of the most deranged tankies. I specified nobody SANE.

Same tiny minority of tankies. There's a lot of tankies here but even amongst them, the condemnation of Hamas' actions is near-universal.

The same isn't the case with supporters of the Israeli government. They are wont to say "Israel has a right to defend itself " as if decades of oppression, genocide and displacement coupled with extremely disproportionate responses are just necessary self defense 🤦
